Butterfly, Nargis, Nina, Hudhud, Fellin, Koringa, Haifong, Bhola are the names. But wait, these names do not belong to any human, animal or tree. So you must have been careful now that all of them have names. Let us tell you the realities of these names. Actually, these names belong to the cyclones that destroy the earth. These cyclones which come on Earth for a few hours and leave the bigger scale of destruction. But the generation remembers them for ages. Now one more question should have been stuck in your mind, who is the name of the cyclones. Actually, there is a complete international convention to name the cyclones. Which country will name the name of a cyclone, on which basis the names will be fixed, etc.
Actually, the name of the cyclones began since 1953. Before this concept was not developed. Since 1953, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the Miami National Hurricane Center introduced the tradition of named cyclones. WMO is a United Nations agency located in Geneva. WMO has been named after cyclones in tropical areas. But in 2004, the international panel led by WMO was dissolved. After this the countries were asked to keep the name of the cyclone coming in their respective areas. Earlier there were no names of cyclones that arose in the North Indian Ocean. According to the experts, the reason for this was that in this area of cultural diversity, there was a need for utmost caution so that there was no controversy due to the hurt of people's emotions. But later, eight countries in the Indian Ocean region started the process of giving names to cyclonic storms on India's initiative. It includes eight countries comprising India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Maldives, Myanmar, Oman, Sri Lanka and Thailand.
Eight countries of the Indian Ocean region started the process of giving names to the cyclone on India's initiative. Weather scientists from these countries made a list of 64 names. There were eight names from every country. This time the nomination was Pakistan's turn. The name 'butterfly' was proposed on Pakistan. Hence the name of the current cyclone was 'Butterfly'. Next is the turn of Oman and Myanmar respectively. The name of the storm that comes after 'butterfly' will be 'luban', which has been proposed by Oman's weather scientists. The cyclonic storm that comes after 'Luban' will be named 'Dahe', which is kept by the Myanmar weather scientists.
In the year 2013, there was objection to the 'Mahasen' storm. On this name maintained by Sri Lanka, some sections and officials of the same country had objections. According to him, King Mahasen had brought peace and prosperity in Sri Lanka, so the name of the disaster is named after him. After this the name of this storm was changed to 'Vaiyaru'.
